Episode 109. Dragon Heart (4)
Aidan was frightened and opened a shield. As soon as the breath started, the mana that had been forcibly dragged into place found its place and was easily gathered in his hand.
In an instant, too much mana was compressed and the shield turned opaque milky white. It wasn’t a magic shield, it was to the extent that it looked as if the thick walls of the castle were united in a circle.
However, it didn’t take seconds for the breath that Ballinan had vomited to tear through the shield.
Following the shape of the breath, about half of Aidan’s body disappeared without a trace.
Even compared to Sheltion’s breath, which Yuma blocked with Sky Split, it was a power that did not fall at all.
The breath was maintained for more than 30 seconds, bending and bending along with Ballinan’s movements.
Aidan had no choice but to run away while the breath spread.
It was not a situation where he could counterattack because he was recovering his body with magic that had lost more than 50%.
“Keugh! What nonsense is this!”
I was stunned. There was no Hort, so the younger brother, who was secretly treated as a half in the family, fired the dragon breath.
Besides, it wasn’t normal power.
It was too easy to pierce the defense shield that compressed the magic power of more than 10 Archmages.
It meant that Ballinan’s breath had at least the same destructive power as Meteor Strike.
Aidan raised his eyes and began examining Ballinan. Soon after, Aidan exclaimed when he found a dragon heart the size of a fist stuck in his forehead.
‘What is that? Magical power as thick as the roots I got… Could it be Sheltion’s Dragon Heart!?’
The reason he hadn’t felt the power of the dragon heart until now was because of the magical power of the root.
Just as one cannot be conscious of another sea in the sea, the two immeasurably great forces could not be accurately distinguished.
The dragon heart protruding like a round horn on Ballinan’s forehead sprinkled brilliant golden light. It was the same color as Sheltion’s pupils.
Ballinan’s body floated into the air.
‘Flight’, like teleportation, is a magic that only exists as a hypothesis, but Aidan and Ballinan were doing it casually.
“Kyao!”
When Ballinan spread his arms wide, the magic power of the area split into two around him, like the sea splitting.
Aidan focused his entire mind on tying the mana so that it would not move against Barinan’s will.
It is to compete with each other to secure more magic power.
Ballinan’s power was so strong that it was not easy to hold on to the dissipating magic.
In the process, Aidan immediately discovered Ballinan’s loophole.
‘The power to move magic is amazing, but I can’t even use it at the level of a beginner!’
The dragon heart that Ballinan had embraced had the same magical power as the ‘root’ that had lost its power while sealing Sheltion for a long time.
In other words, just like Aidan, Ballinan gained near-infinite magical power.
However, the problem was that Ballinan could not use the power called ‘magic’ that he had never used before.
If novices and geniuses in swordsmanship were given the same famous sword, the victory would of course belong to the genius.
What if it was a confrontation between a person who had never even held a sword but had lost his senses and a genius with a high level of skill?
Thinking that far brought a smile to Aidan’s lips.
In his heart, which shrank in shock for a moment, a base desire came again.
“Ballinan! I don’t know what happened, but I guess this brother should take the dragon heart as well!”
Aidan shouted, creating a magic whirlwind. Dozens of whirlwinds swung around like snakes and attacked Ballinan.
It wasn’t a real attack. It was a fake to see if Val Reinan’s loophole was as serious as he expected.
Ballinan wrapped his magical power like armor and wielded his hands at random.
With each touch, the magic whirlwind was crushed like silken tofu, but it was a struggle that could not be called magic.
‘also! At this level, killing and stealing is only a matter of time. From root to dragon heart. The day will come when my aspirations as a wizard will be rewarded…!’
Meanwhile, Yuma was inferring how the situation was going by relying only on hearing.
‘It seems that Ballinan used Sheltion’s dragon heart… but it seems that this castle has been lost. Is it in a state similar to that of Jeka in the past?’
Hearing Ballinan’s grotesque voice, I couldn’t lie on my back like you did.
However, since he was unable to fight with his proper body, his heart felt stuffy.
Aidan sees Barinan and
thinks he’s a ‘newbie’, but while fighting Aidan, Yuma clearly realized that he’s no big deal.
Only his magical power was infinite, but his fighting sense was bottomless.
There was no such thing as becoming the strongest with the power that was fortunately acquired.
If it wasn’t for right after his physical strength was exhausted after fighting Weltion, Aidan wouldn’t have come as a problem.
It was meaningless that Aidan was an immortal being who could regenerate his body with magic.
There were already three Demon Kings who believed themselves to be immortal and challenged Yuma. how were they all
‘I need time to recover. Come to your senses! I wish I could get my eyesight back at least a little…!’
He fought until his body was all broken, and even if he was injured, it was meaningless if he could not see his eyes.
Yuma calmed down the aura that flowed unsteadily inside her body and calmed herself down.
“Younger brother, even though you gain magical power, you can’t use it. What a pitiful thing. I will take care of your rotten body.”
The magic that Aidan decided to use on Barlinan was ‘encroachment’.
Originally, it was a useless magic for Barlinan, who had no magical power in her body, but since she had obtained the magical power of the dragon heart, if she was encroached on, it would cause a backflow of magical energy that would cause her to explode.
In the air where Aidan was floating, magical gins began to sprout one by one like discs.
The ceremony of the magic circle was the same as that of the enhanced encroachment carried out by the elite magicians of the Povian family.
Then the son-in-law suddenly darkened.
Ballinan looked around like a beast that instinctively sensed danger, but belatedly confirmed that his body was gradually turning black, and screamed.
As if black paint had dissolved, Ballinan’s small body was stained black.
After about 5 seconds, the manifestation of encroachment that started at the tip of the foot reached up to the waist.
“Karuk Karr!”
It was difficult to tell whether it was a scream or a scream. Then, as the encroachment reached his chest, Ballinan’s body fell helplessly to the floor.
Aidan descended slowly toward the trembling Ballinan.
The magic regurgitation has already begun.
It was different in scale from the normal wizards’ regurgitation. The magical energy of the Gray Forest was blushing in sympathy with the regurgitation of Barinann.
It was horsepower expansion. If Vali Nun were to be swallowed up by encroachment like this, the expanded mana would explode all at once.
“I’m not in a good mood either, Ballinan. I wish you would have understood me.”
Saying that, Aidan’s hand reached for the dragon heart that had sprouted on Ballinan’s forehead.
As soon as Aidan’s whole body was about to be covered with a deafening thrill, the space right next to Ballinan was cut off like paper.
For a moment, Aidan mistakenly thought that it was the current situation caused by Yuma’s Aura Blade.
It was because Yuma’s Aura Blaird looked outwardly as if the space itself had been cut out and an aura had been drawn through the gap.
He hurriedly pulled back and turned his head in the direction of Yuma.
And Aidan couldn’t help but let out a windy noise.
“That’s…!”
A dragon was flying high into the sky behind Yuma. A whopping eight dragons.
The flapping of their wings that split the sky was full of dignity even from afar, and all of them were shining brightly colored dragon faces.
In addition, a blue-haired woman suddenly walked out of the space she mistook for Yuma’s Aura Blade.
There was no sense of reality in her appearance as she looked around the gray forest that had turned into ruins with eyes as deep as the sea.
A beautiful woman I’ve never seen before.
But for some reason, Aidan was overcome by the urge to bow his head toward her right now. I didn’t even dare to ask who you were.
“I am too late. Long time no see, Yuma.”
Yuma, still unaware of what was happening, jumped up when he heard the voice.
“Kriesha-sama…’?”
“okay. You made me look embarrassing.”
Aidan looked alternately between the flying dragons and Kriesha, not knowing what to do. My heart pounded more than when I stumbled upon Adol’s research paper one day.
“Whoa. An unexpected support group. There are many things I want to tell you, Kriesha.”
Kriesha and Yuma continued their conversation in a light voice, as if they didn’t care about Aidan.
“You are probably the only one who has gone through so many incidents in a mortal body.”
Fire!
When Kriesha shone her dragon’s eyes, the divine blue light instantly drove away the dark energy of encroachment.
Val Reinan’s body, which had been dyed black to the tip of her chin, began to regain its flesh color, and the light of the dragon’s face, which extended further, gently embraced Yuma.
It was the power of the Dragon Eye.
Yuma floated up and was surrounded by round light for a while, but when the light disappeared, to his surprise, all his wounds healed completely. His eyesight has fully returned.
It was the same power as when Hugo passed the test in the past and healed Shuka.
After the encroachment was lifted, Ballinan had a peaceful face as if he had fallen into a deep sleep. However, the dragon heart still embedded in his forehead emitted a fierce light.
Kriesha looked at the light with sad eyes for a while and caught her breath.
“Are you feeling guilty?”
As the light in the dragon’s eyes disappeared, Krissa glared at Aidan and asked.
“Not like that! What right do you have to interrogate me?”
Aidan yelled and met Kriesha’s eyes.
“Admit your fault even now. Just like the people of the past did at the spot where you were standing a long time ago. I will forgive you for losing this castle, drunk with the magic of the roots.”
“I’m sorry, Miss Krisha. I’m going to kill him no matter what the Balaur chooses. certainly.”
“I am also asking this fool whether he will die with dignity or die without loss.”
“Then I won’t add.”
“Fuck the bullshit! I have gained infinite magical power and immortality. Even a dragon cannot kill me! Anyone!”
Flutter…!
Eight dragons were circling above the sky where they stood.
Five or more dragons moving at once was a sight I had never seen before returning.
“You chose to lose your dignity.
Unlike you, dragons never take back what they say.”
-Kill him forever.
When Kriesha’s words fell, eight dragons descended at once.
There was tremendous wind pressure, but miraculously, the strong wind did not spread at all to the side where the injured were.
“You will experience more deaths than you have lived. By the oath of the Balaur.”
